I made my Christmas gifts again this year and although they weren't much I loved them and I think all the family and friends I gave them to did too!
The first set of gifts were coffee mugs to all the coffee drinkers. This was also the cheapest gift. I bought white mugs from Wal-Mart for about $1 a piece and then two big packages of Sharpies in all colors. I drew and colored in a mustache on each cup and on the opposite side I drew or wrote something unique to just that person.
After my expert drawing LOL I baked the mugs at 350 for 30 minutes to seal the marker in.
Drop in a brown paper lunch sack and decorate with name tag and ribbon. You now have a gift for under $5.
Some how I deleted or misplaced some of my pictures so this is the mustache side of one mug.
After I finished those little babies the rest of my Christmas presents consisted of glass and etching cream.
I don't have a picture of the ice blocks that I bought at Hobby Lobby, etched a design on the front, and filled with twinkle lights but they turned out really cute and everyone loved them.
For Caleb I etched a long mirror for him to hang over his bed in his bedroom.
I wasn't very good at taking pictures of my projects this year but they were really inexpensive, great gifts for anyone.
